No details of when or what, but the report is from the highest source:

Infiniti to launch performance EV with Nissan tech by 2020

...Infiniti will launch an electric vehicle in the next three years, according to boss Roland Krueger.

He said he had already driven an early prototype, describing it as "very good".

Krueger added that it was important that an electric vehicle maintained Infiniti's values of performance and handling - a forte of its hybrid offerings, he said. "We want it to have a unique Infiniti driving experience."

While Krueger wouldn't divulge what it's first electric car would be, he admitted it would be a new platform suggesting it will be a standalone model rather than a derivative of an existing model...

But it's a Nissan, and likely the concept preview for the next gen Altima.

Interesting. If this can go 250 miles, had four doors and could comfortably seat four adults, this may be my next car (which is going to be a BEV). Pay a bit more to avoid Tesla's business model that lacks the Right to Repairs.

Will this be a real infiniti or a rebadged leaf, like when lexus put a plate on the prius? It won't be easy selling an EV at the Tesla price point, though I am sure there are some people who will never buy a tesla if there isn't a dealership near by.
